Eden High Series Chapter 153: JACE
Liars, every last one of 'em! Yep! I'll play their game for now, but I hope they know there're eyes and ears all over this place. If it comes to it, I'll just hit replay on this sector and this room and read their fucking lips if I have to. I didn't let my thoughts show on my face as I contemplated doing just that.Alex and Shane should know by now that they can't hide shit from me, I know them too well. I kinda get why they were keeping secrets this time though, they probably think they're protecting me."How're the girls doing?" I asked once Jared returned. Sian was finally asleep. I'd had a hell of a time getting her to go to sleep after slamming her. She was worried about everybody else and wanted to go check on them. Since she's my only concern right now I nixed that shit.I was afraid if I let her go wandering around with her nosy ass she might learn the truth about what really happened tonight. Right now she's still under the impression that this whole thing was an a

The fact that I don't care about her and show it is probably the reason why she can't let go. I never imagined that things would go this far though.But I should've known how she would react and been prepared. If I had, none of this would've happened. And Sian wouldn't be a fucking target.When Sian and I got engaged I wasn't thinking about anything else but making her mine. I'd missed a step there as well.Our engagement wasn't as small a deal as I made it out to be. She doesn't know it yet because I've been waiting until school was over to make the official announcement.But when she became my fiancée, it put her in a completely different league. I haven't prepared her, was giving her more time to enjoy what little freedom she has left before opening that door. In one move I'd made her an heiress to a fortune that was in the top one percent.I'd planned to tell her once school was out. I'd wanted to ease her into it slowly until she learned to accept what it truly meant to

Outside the sun was beginning to change the color of the sky and the birds were waking up in their nests. I ignored the pain in my hand as we headed for my truck. Alex jumped in the driver's seat and Track helped me get in the backseat, his face looking like a storm. "Hey how'd you get home so fast?""We'll talk when we get to your place." He slammed the door and jogged back to his car. Well shit, he's pissed. That's never good.The three in the truck with me kept throwing me looks like they expected me to go Hulk or some shit. "Don't ask me what happened because you know I don't know.""Yeah, we know, we were there." Shane turned to glare at me from the passenger seat. Then he shared a look with Jared which said, 'you see?' Like I didn't know they were hiding some shit."Okay what happened?""What happened? You went into the room, we were right behind you. Then you started breaking shit." There was still a hint of fear in his voice. "The wall, the mirrors, every damn t

Perfect, that's why I love Jace, he kinda thinks like me. "Did you go over there? You smell like smoke." She sniffed my shirt. "Yeah! I knew you were spending the night."My body shook with renewed horror. When I'd heard that explosion in the background and then that asshole had taken my phone...She's okay Track don't lose your shit in front of her and scare her. But I'd seen that house and knew the damage that could've been done had she and her friends been in that room."Where were you guys when it happened?" From the way she tensed up I knew I wasn't going to like what she was about to say. "Um, er...""Valerie!" I squeezed her shoulder."We were on our way to Mandy's house." The words came out in a rush and it took me a minute to figure out why the hell they would've been doing that. "Did you have fun before all this happened?" I decided to leave the Mandy thing alone for now until I had a chance to talk to Jace."Yes, these girls are nice, especially Sian. In fact

So far none of the things I've uncovered looks good for her. Not only that, but in order to protect her I've had to put myself in the government's hands under the pretense of helping them with their shady shit.What I'm doing is dangerous as fuck. If anything goes wrong with my plan Valerie will be left out here all alone with no one to take care of her. And my sister will spend the rest of her life in danger while I live out my days in some high security prison somewhere.I couldn't let my thoughts dwell in that dark place for too long though. I can't allow myself to be weak in anyway in the face of the shit I've learned in the last year.One of the things I'd learned so far is that I'm up against some heavy hitters. People who wouldn't stop until they got what they wanted, and what they wanted was my sister. I just don't know why yet.One of the reasons I'm so good at this hacking shit is because of my sixth sense. It's not quite ESP, don't know what it is, so I just call it

There was no point in going back to bed now since Sian was asleep, so we headed for the kitchen. I wasn't hungry but I needed to do something with myself so I might as well eat.My mind wouldn't let the past night's events rest and I wanted to be doing something, but there wasn't anything I could do until I knew more.Track came back downstairs not long after and headed straight for the fridge and a bottle of water. He tipped it back and emptied the bottle in a few swallows."You wanna tell me what the fuck happened?""I'm not sure yet but I'm pretty sure Mandy had something to do with it even if there's no evidence of that as yet.""Did they say what type of explosive was used?""Some kinda homemade pipe bomb. Don't worry your girl wasn't hurt. She was busy disobeying me along with Sian and the others.""Yeah, about that. What the fuck were they going to her house for?""What do you think? To confront her of course.""Hmm, I guess now they'll say that it was okay to

I've been trying hard not to come on too strong. She already thinks I'm overbearing though she has no idea. If she knew how much I want to smother her she'd freak.Not only because of my own personal need to be part of everything where she's concerned, but also out of necessity.As part of my family there are certain things that will have to change, things I haven't told her about as yet. I didn't want to scare her off in the beginning before we even had a chance.But how much longer can I allow her the freedom that she has now? How will she react to the reality of who I am and who she'll be as an extension?If this keeps up I'm afraid I'm going to have to take drastic measures and knowing her stubborn ass, she's not going to like it. But I might not have a choice after last night.I'd barely been willing to give the cops the time they asked for before, but I don't think I can go through another attack on her without taking action no matter what my dad or hers say.I brushe

We had years ahead of us before dad stepped down. Years in which to get her ready for that future role. I didn't want to rob either of us of that time.But if I don't do something, if I don't stand in front of her now, how will my enemies take me seriously? In a little less than a year I'm going to graduate and leave her behind.That's something that's been plaguing me even before all of this started. My dream is that she'd be able to graduate early and join me but that's not guaranteed.How can I even think of leaving her behind when others were trying to harm her? If I don't take care of this now, will someone else come out of the woodwork somewhere down the line and go after her again because they see me as a weakling who doesn't know how to protect his woman?I sighed in frustration as I took her hand in mine. I shouldn't be having these thoughts, shouldn't have to deal with anything this heavy at my age. But it seems I have no control over it.That other people are going

They looked around the room at each other until Logan nodded his head. I guess that was the go ahead because Mancini took point again."What we're about to share with you doesn't leave this room. We've come together along with some other friends that you didn't get to meet this time, to form a kind of group if you will.""Each of us serves a purpose in this group. It's also top secret, which you should understand." He looked at Track and I moved to stand in front of him. "It's okay Jace, he knows.""I'm not working for the government, no disrespect." I looked at the SEALs. The men in the room started to smile. I wasn't sure what the fuck they were, but it wasn't hard to tell that they were something. What with the compound that was more secure that the Pentagon."That's not who we are. What we propose, if we all agree is that you boys become part of our elite group. We'll fill you in on all the pertinent details a little later once you get on board. If not we can stop this lit

I just held her and let her get it out, knowing that she'd be right as rain in no time. "Come on baby, let's get you dried and dressed." I turned off the water and lifted her to take her out of the shower."Jace, do you ever regret marrying me?" I want to answer this shit for the one hundredth time. What is it with women? The guys were all complaining about the same thing, except for Alex who was always smiling these days, the fuck."Sian, just like I told you yesterday and the day before that, even if I live to be a hundred, I won't ever regret the best decision I ever made.""But we're so young." I rolled my eyes and dried her feet that she couldn't hardly see anymore. "Does that mean that you regret it because you're younger than I am?"That one always stumps her but she still asks the same damn question over and over. So I knew what was coming next. "But it's not the same for men.""That's not sexist or anything. I should start worrying as often as you ask me that. Maybe
Eden High Series Chapter 232: TRACK
Not scared like a punk, more like amazed at the shit these fucks can get up to. So when he so casually mentioned something that he should have no knowledge of, I got the sense there was much more left unsaid. I'm sure a man of his caliber wasn't just wasting his time on some kid that he didn't even know."I sense a catch.""No catch, I just think you're wasted on those fucknuts is all. Anytime you're ready give me a ring." He'd rang off after that but there was no mistaking the smile in his voice. I'm pretty sure he knew that I was going to look into him.And that was my reason for being hesitant about taking Jace with me. I'd got a glimpse of where those SEALs live and I have the feeling that shit would only give Jace ideas. He was already making noise about building a place like the one on the island where we all could live. The kid's a damn hippie at heart.***JACE***"Track wants us to go to Georgia to meet his sister. We're going this weekend if you're not too sick

I didn't feel shit when I put pressure on his neck. Everything was happening so fast. Sian was screaming, finally giving into the fear and Track was trying to talk me down."I told you not to touch her you fuck. Did you forget?" I tightened my arm around his neck, adding just the right amount of pressure and barely restrained myself from doing more "I'm going to break your fucking neck.""Jace no, let him go, he's not worth it." I ignored Track and twisted my arm quick, snapping Stanley's neck. "Call the cops.""Fuck Jace! What the fuck did I say?""Call the cops.""No, let me think let me clean this up. Shane, Alex bar the door make sure no one gets by..." I hadn't even heard the others rush in behind me. But turned to see them now with horror in their eyes. "He's not dead Track his neck's just broken. Call the cops." I dropped Stanley on the floor just as the men who were supposed to be watching the school came through the door."What took you guys so long?""He didn

For now, it was fine. For the next nine months I knew she was going to keep me on my toes. We had an appointment with the best Obstetrician of course, who'd been vetted to within an inch of her life before I agreed.I was trying to make it so that she only had to worry about school and giving birth, other than that I was there to pick up the slack. I had the fridge in our suite stocked with all the things she's been asking for lately and hoping for smooth sailing.I was getting used to waking up with her in the morning to hold her hair while she threw up. Then her horny ass would need a fix on the bathroom floor after a quick nap.Other than that, there was no sign that her tiny ass was even pregnant. Of course she's decided that she can get away with shit now, because I can't fix her ass, but I have other ways of keeping her ass in line.That Monday as soon as we'd reached the school yard the whispers started. It wasn't long before we heard the whole story of Mandy being dropp

Mom came down with a tray of something in her hands instead of letting one of the servants do it."Hey mom, how come you're doing this yourself?""I don't know. We didn't go to the shelter this year because we've invited everyone, so I guess I'm feeling a little bit guilty.""Didn't you donate all the food this year? I'm sure they don't mind us missing one year mom, we'll go for Xmas, and make everyone that's here today come with us.""Sounds good son. By the way, I'm going to let you off the hook for telling your dad before you told me.""Shit, mom...""It's okay, he explained. By the way her parents know so you two don't have to keep putting it off any longer.""How?""Veronica is a mother son. We both figured something was going on that day in the hospital.""Well, that's all good and well but Sian has decided she's never telling her dad. She doesn't want him to know she's having sex."Mom thought that shit was hilarious but the rest of my crew, except for Track,
Eden High Series Chapter 228: JACE
With Mandy behind bars, all I needed was to find Stanley to tie her into the attack on Sian. I need that to put her away for the rest of her life.I'd been leaving clues and making anonymous phone calls to the cops for a while. Once I'd contacted the men she'd been extorting and told them the truth about her age, some of them were more than happy to come forward. The only ones that tried to hold out were the married ones. Some of them I let slide, like Cassie's dad. But the others I put the squeeze on.That's why I'd needed her phone and the stuff that she left behind when she got kicked out of her house. My team had already confiscated it all. That, along with the computer stick Liz had mailed me, were locked away in my safe. Everything except the phone which had been mailed to the cops. I was still protecting Carter, but I had to do it for Cassie's sake.The ones that did have sex with her when she was underage, their names had been handed over to the cops. There were going
Eden High Series Chapter 227: JACE
I drove down the driveway slowly with the lights off. There was one light on in the house and I wasn't surprised that it was in Sian's room. I got out of the truck and looked around at the dark night.It would be so easy... But I couldn't do anything here, not where my girl's family slept. Instead I walked around back. How did she get in anyway? And how do I get in without alerting her to the fact that I was here. I wasn't left wondering long.The alarm hadn't been set because of the workers going back and forth, which was an oversight. No one expects to be robbed in this neighborhood, but still. I knew it wasn't on since the night I'd come back here for her medicine, but hadn't thought much of it. Missed that one.I walked up the stairs, being as quiet as I could and stepped into Sian's bedroom door. Mandy was sitting on the bed, the new bed that replaced the one that had been burned in the explosion."What are you doing here?" It was obvious what she was doing. The door to Si
Eden High Series Chapter 226: MANDY
I'd been so excited I'd forgotten to score some drugs. I hadn't seen a male anywhere in that stupid place anyway, that might've been willing to help me, so it was most likely a bust. I sat in the car and formulated my next move in my head. How can I get close enough to do what I have to do? There was no way to get onto the Saunders' property without being noticed.Unless...No they've had the same domestic staff for a while, they probably know each one on sight. How can I get there? I don't have anything suitable, anything that would disguise me until I got close enough. Close enough to destroy her, that bitch.I drove around for a while still no closer to a solution. Thanksgiving was in two days. Another thought hit me. It was something I'd learned about Jace and his family even before we dated. When he still used to act like I didn't exist. When I used to read anything I could get my hands on about the ultra-wealthy family. Yes, that would be perfect. I'd forgotten all abou
